Privacy Policy

Your privacy on the Internet is important to us. Because there are parts of our site where we ask you to provide us with certain types of personal information, we want you to know how we will use it.

Voluntary forms

Foremost provides voluntary forms for you to request online estimates, file a claim and complete an online application for employment. We will use the information that you give us to prepare an estimate, issue a policy, or handle a claim. We will not sell that information to any other person or organization, but we may make it part of a reference source for future contact with you by Foremost or its affiliates.

Cookies

We may use cookies to track customer or user requests, inquiries and traffic patterns or to determine audience size and repeated usage. A cookie is a message sent to your browser from a Web server that is stored on your computer's hard drive. The message is sent back to the Web server whenever the browser requests a page from that server. Many commercial Internet sites use cookies. While a code in the cookie file enables the site to label you as a particular user, it does not identify you by name or address unless you have provided the site with such information or set up preferences in your browser to do so automatically. You may opt out of accepting cookies by changing the settings on your browser. When you visit our website, other parties may collect personally identifiable information about your online activities over time and across different websites. Please note that we do not currently support "Do Not Track" signals but may do so in the future.

Financial Services Modernization Act (Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act)

New York Domestic Violence Procedures

Confidentiality of Information for New York Domestic Violence Victims and Endangered Individuals

New York Insurance Law provides that if any person covered by an insurance policy delivers to the insurer a valid order of protection against another policyholder or other person covered by the policy requesting that their information be kept confidential then the insurer is prohibited for the duration of that order from disclosing to that policyholder or other person the address and telephone number of the victim, or of any person or entity providing covered services to the victim. If a child is a covered person, then the right may be asserted by the child’s parent or guardian.

The request should be made by faxing a copy of the order of protection to Foremost Insurance Company (616) 325-1507. If you are unable to fax a copy of the order, please email the request to Imaging@Foremost.com or mail it to us at Foremost Insurance Company, P.O. Box 2450, Grand Rapids, MI 49501.

Once a valid request has been received and implemented, a requestor may only revoke the prior request by submitting to us a written sworn statement revoking the request.

For additional assistance, please contact the New York State Domestic and Sexual Violence Hotline:
